Top researchers and companies in artificial intelligence, including Fei-Fei Li’s World Labs, Meta’s Yann LeCun, and Google DeepMind, are all promoting technology they call a “world model”. However, the term is being used to describe three fundamentally different approaches to building AI that can understand and interact with the world. An analysis by Entropy Town …
Researchers at Google have introduced a new AI paradigm called “Nested Learning” to address a major weakness in current large language models (LLMs). Ben Dickson reports for VentureBeat that this approach could enable AI systems to learn and update their knowledge continuously after their initial training. Today’s LLMs are largely static. Their knowledge is limited …
Google DeepMind has launched a new specialized AI model that allows software agents to interact with graphical user interfaces. In an official post, Google DeepMind reports that the Gemini 2.5 Computer Use model enables AI to perform tasks on websites and mobile apps by clicking, typing, and scrolling just like a human. The model works …
Google Deepmind has announced Genie 3, a new AI “world model” capable of generating interactive, three-dimensional environments from text prompts. According to the company’s official post, users can navigate these dynamic worlds in real time. The model generates environments at a resolution of 720p and runs at 24 frames per second. Google Deepmind states that …
Google DeepMind’s David Silver and Richard S. Sutton predict a major shift in artificial intelligence development, which they call the “Era of Experience.” In a preprint paper for MIT Press, the researchers argue that AI will increasingly learn from its own experiences rather than human-generated data. The authors suggest that current AI systems, particularly large …
Google DeepMind has developed an AI system that surpasses the average performance of gold medalists in solving geometry problems from the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). As reported by Kyle Wiggers, the new system called AlphaGeometry2 successfully solved 84% of geometry problems from the past 25 years of IMO competitions. The AI combines a Gemini language …
Google DeepMind has introduced FACTS Grounding, a new benchmark system to evaluate the factual accuracy of large language models (LLMs). According to Taryn Plumb’s report in VentureBeat, the benchmark tests how well AI models generate accurate responses based on long-form documents. The system includes a public leaderboard on Kaggle, where Gemini 2.0 Flash currently leads …
Google DeepMind has announced Veo 2, its latest AI video generation model, positioning it as a direct competitor to OpenAI’s Sora. The new model is currently available through Google Labs’ VideoFX platform on a waitlist basis, with users required to apply through a Google Form for access. According to Google, Veo 2 can generate videos …
DeepMind has announced Genie 2, an artificial intelligence model capable of creating playable 3D environments from single images and text prompts. The model, unveiled on December 4, 2024, represents an advancement over its predecessor Genie 1, which was limited to 2D worlds. According to DeepMind, Genie 2 can generate interactive environments that respond to keyboard …
Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis leads the company’s efforts to advance artificial intelligence while balancing research goals with commercial applications. In an extensive interview with Harry McCracken, Hassabis details how the April 2023 merger of DeepMind and Google Brain created a powerhouse AI research organization that now serves as Google’s “engine room.” The combined entity …
